The team around Jason Baron (ex-head of litigation at NARA) and Barclay Blair has started a lot of initiatives to foster IG on several levels.

We know that Information governance is a young and immature concept which unites several disciplines which are still fragmented;
each has it's own community and strategies.

see: http://www.infogovcon.com/blog/entry/the-fragmented-communities-of-information-governance

It is a real goal to bring these communities more together, in order to improve the alignment of the disciplines within a given IG project of an organization incl. the mutual understanding of these disciplines amongst their stakeholders; however it does merely make sense to replace all these IM related disciplines for the sake of a holistic super discsipline.
I guess that this is not an option by anybody in the IG community.
IG will remain an umbrella term; it serves to optimize the orchestration of IM in a given program and corp. culture.
